Tortle Lucky Elephant Adjustable Repositioning Beanie, Corrective for Flat Head Syndrome (Large)

The first 6 months of life are crucial for an infant's development, and it is during this time that flat spots tend to develop. The Tortle Lucky Elephant Repositioning baby beanie was created by mother and doctor of Pediatrics and Neonatology, Dr. Jane Scott, as a solution for babies wrestling with flat head syndrome (Plagiocephaly or Torticollis). This innovative head repositioning product promotes healthy neck muscles and actively shapes the baby's head.

Unlike flat head syndrome pillows, our comfortable cotton/spandex blend beanie was designed with the comfort of your baby in mind. The Lucky Elephant Repositioning baby beanie comes in two sizes, Medium, which fits babies with a 15"-16.5" Head Circumference, and Large, which fits babies with a 16.5"-18" Head Circumference. The redesigned side tabs make the beanie easier to put on and the front opening with adjustable Velcro closure ensures the right fit. The large concave support roll is made of non-toxic foam and is firm enough to prevent rolling, while encouraging natural movement. The Tortle Lucky Elephant beanie can be used while your baby is lying on a flat surface, in a car seat, in a stroller, or on the floor.

The silicone dots on the inside of the Tortle are similar to those found on yoga and athletic gear, and they will help keep the Tortle positioned correctly on your baby's head. They may leave small marks on your baby's skin. This is normal. They are temporary and they will disappear shortly after the Tortle is removed.

When you first place a Tortle on your baby, he or she may fuss and seem not to like it. This is natural, especially if your baby is not used to wearing a hat. The Tortle may also cause them to fuss because it is preventing them from resting their head in the position that caused the flat spot or Torticollis in the first place. Most babies adjust quickly to their new head position and adapt well to your repositioning practices.
